Well my cases just arrived. I opened 2 and they were totally different from each other. I got 2 Yak Faces so I'd love to trade with someone for an Anakin. By the way, the layout of how the cases came packed (couple pages back) were also totally different than how mine came. Just wanted everyone to know there doesn't seem to be a pattern this time. They must be onto us! Anyway, happy hunting and let me know if anyone wants to trade CHASES.

Here's my theory- the Gammorean Guards must be a pain to paint and probably cost a lot to make with all the plastic. That's why they skimped. The Spirit Anakin is just lame coming in at 2:12. Why the hell would we need 2? They're cheap to make though and require almost no intricate painting... Does anyone remember 1983 or 1984 when the Kenner Gammorean Guards came out? They were near impossible to find. My mom drove me all over town and I still never got one. Once I got it I couldn't believe how heavy it was. Just a little nostalgia.

Wow, so much for army building Snowtroopers. I think this is a sign we're coming toward the end of the line, folks. The Snowtrooper is the obvious 4:12 for Series 8 or 9. That boxed set is amazing though. Not a lousy figure in there and thank god no Ewoks. Bring on Series 7!!!!! Any second now right?

If anyone still has an extra Wedge floating around at this point that they don't want to gouge me on, please drop me a line. I'd also be willing to toss a couple TIE Pilots and/or TSC Endor figures into the mix as trade bait, or I'd be willing to sell my two TIE Pilots to anyone interested separately instead...

As for the potential TRU boxset #3, considering the first two have proven to be mostly just repaints, this is the lineup I'd dig for the next one:

Any other viable options for repaints still at this point? There's always more astromech repaint options from all 3 versions (R2, R4, R5), of course. Silver and red 3POs would work too, as would more Rebel Pilots (Biggs, Dutch, etc.), and I guess there's also the Mon Calamari Colonel (would need a small helmet molded on Ackbar, like the POTJ figure). Anything else come to mind?

How about General Lando, Han Ceremonial, Chewbacca Hoth, and you know there's going to be some lame Ewok.
